Help creating a constelation!

Hi, welcome to the community!

  • Can you be more specific on what you are trying to do? Are you trying to recreate existing constellations? As in, do you have a dataset with the proper coordinates of real constellations you then want to import? Or are you just trying to recreate the feel of a constellation sky, e.g. drawing random points?

  • What does “completes itself” mean. Should the stars appear one after another? Or do they appear in a constellation group?

  • What does “I need to use a library” mean in this case? Is it the minim library from your other post? I think before you add audio-reactive complexity, you should try to put down a foundation and start out with a static visualisation of the constellations you want to display. How far have you come with this?

If you can be as concrete as possible on your intentions, it becomes much easier for others to support you in finding a great solution.

For some inspiration, check out the keyword “constellation” on OpenProcessing.
